Soothed refers more to a physical feeling. We often use it to talk about babies (Ex. Back rubs are so soothing)
Reassured is for emotions, so it is mostly used people other than babies. (Ex. I reassured her that I would support her)

smothed is only really used to say "smothed things over"/"smothed things out" which means to clear things up and/or make them easier to solve
reassured can be used in many sentences ex. "she reassured me that things were ok" reassured means to try and calm someone down by removing their doughts and fears
hope this helps
